Oh it's this one then. I read it has already been discussed here... you 
really need to remove the multicore implementation: it's experimental as 
of now and *much* slower than single core. I don't know why the your 
distro maintainer has activated it. What distro is that? Someone should 
probably tell the maintainers to disable it by default. I think all your 
problems will go away if you can recompile with multicore off.
